PLANTING.


In planting trees the holes should be
dug in uncultivated ground, from
three to five feet wide and from two to
and half feet deep, and partly fill the
hole again with good, mellow earth,
before placing the trees therein.
Place the tree in the hole and fill withi
good, mellow earth or top soil, exclud-
ing all large stones, sods or manures
from coming in contact with the roots.
Take hold of the tree and shake II gen.
tly up and down, SO as to cause the
fine dirt to sift In and iii up all vacant
places between the roots. at the same
time raising the tree TO its proper
height. II two feet deep. which should
not be much deeper than IL STOOD In
the ground before. The point where
the roots commence to branch from
the trunk Of the tree should be within
one inch from the top Of the ground.
In the spring the earth should be
leveled down and long manure or
litter covered ABOUT the tree for the
space Of three feet. This preserves the
roots from drouth. Trees will grow
twice as fast treated in this way.
After planting, the soil around the
trees should be mulched with manure,
or coarse litter Of any kind, to prevent
the action of the frost during the win-
ter. and the soil from becoming dry
during the summer. Also be careful
to stake the trees firmly, protecting
the bark by a piece Of mating, in case
strings are used in tying.
Among the decidious trees, American
Elm, Naples and Lindens are well
known favorites; and the Silver
Lesved Poplar, too, 80 noted for the
tremulous motion of its leaves and
rapid growth. The Poplar makes q

formation that is so necessary to in.
sure success. and some of which ought
to be in possession of everyone who
expects to plant few trees, even
though IL be only few, for the front
yard. 1t may be taken as an invari-
able rule that good trees, shrubs,
flowers, ETC., cannot be raised upon a
soil which is wet, or not well draiued.
A well drained soil is one In which
the roots of trees or vines may de-
scend to considerable depth without
coming in contact with stagnant
moisture. Soil with q tolerably por-
Gus nature, With an open or grsvelly
sub-soil through which the water
passes readily downward. is best, es-
pecially for standard trees, or those
whose roots penetrate deep. Where
the soil is not naturally dry, mot an
uncommon condition to find IL here)
resort must be had to draining, which
should be very thorough, and no. less
than three feet deep. The soil should
be well prepared before planting by
deep blowing, or If for a garden, by
deep spading or trenching, and liber-

A Mystery Of Sleeping Car Unblush-
ingly Unravelled.
From brakes Travellers Magazine.

From brakes Troreller's Magazine.
"Queerest thing happened on my car
tother day that | ever heard of, said a
sleepingcar conductor on the New York
Central. Coming into the city we were a
little late an didn't reach town until 1870
p. M, when we should have been in by q.
One OF my passengers was a rather elderly
and infirTn woman with long, Sallow face,
dull, sunken eyes, a languid air, and tawny
hair that was too straight to be pretty. She
was plainly dressed and too homely and
common to attract any attention from the
drumnlers who sat near her All afternoon
she kept inquiring if we'd get into New Y ork
on time, and appeared very nervous about 1t;
Finally / told her we couldn't get in till
nearly o'clock, and then she said she want
ed the use of the stateroom about half
an hour and didn't want to be disturbed.
Well, didn't pay any more attention to
her for some time, but just before we arrived
at the Central station passed through the
car, and sitting there in the seat where the
old woman had been was a girl-as pretty
and bright girl as | ever saw in my
life, with round, creamy face, bright eyes
and golden ringlets, and she was beauti-
fully dressed.
Something wrong here says l TO
myself, and I'm going to find out what it
is. So approached her and asked to see
her train check She showed it to me and
it was all right.
Do you know what has become of the
old party who had this berth last nightP
inquired.
" don't know anything about any old
party she snapped out as / went away.
Some mystery here says l to myself.
There's been murder, or disappearance,
or an attempt to ride two people on one
ticket, or something, and I'm going to find
out what it is. HUNTED all through the
car, and even went forward into the passen-
ger coaches, but not a trace could | get of
my old woman passenger. By this time |
was thoroughly excited, and as the train
drew into the station | called the companys
detective, pointed the young woman out to
him and told him the strange facts
Look it up says | to him. There's
been foul play of some sort, sure
1.-The detective accompanied the you ng
woman to carriage, and | saw him talk to
her. She laughed, showing rosy mouth
and pearly teeth, and then he laughed until
l thought he would fall to pieces.
What's the trouble? says |, as her car
riage drove away
'"Troubler echoed the detective. There's
no trouble, except that you are a COMPOUNDED
idiot. Can't pretty young ballet dancer

pushed for time, and mas to get right from
the train to the theatre, without you sus-
